Tiger Fall – A Hidden Beauty

‘Tiger Fall’ is a remote picnic spot in amidst of Chakrata hills located at 17 kms from the cantonment. It is isolated place away from urban hustle bustle where all day outing can be planned or camping or overnight stays can also be preferred to relax in lap of magical beauties. It is a famous spot for entry level trekkers where trekking goes through hilly villages and farming fields which make this place more soothing to eyes.

The best time to visit Tiger Fall is during monsoon as it appears in its full bloom. It falls from 50 meters, in-fact it slides speedily on the rocks instead of direct fall which makes it a different view and experience. Fall sounds like a tiger roar therefore it has been named as per that. It lies in the valley therefore it needs a kilometer of down trek through farming fields which makes it a complete adventure itinerary.

Hotels Info: There are fewer hotels in Chakrata, the best one is ‘Snow View Hotel’ on a beautiful location. Apart from hotels one can stay in camps available few kilometers before Chakrata or at Viraat Khai located 20 kms further.

Here is my pictography…..

Almost half journey was completed and I distracted by a known smell. I was shocked, never experienced this kind of flower so far. I called everyone to check if I got the correct smell, Vivek confirmed it and we all smiled then. These yellow flowers smelled like testosterone (sperm). I was in dilemma to put this photo and information here or not, but this world belongs to shameless and bold people therefore it is better to give all information.

Valley

Tiger Fall valley, it was looking magnificent from the top. Dog was still with us therefore we gave some more biscuits, while he was busy eating we started our bikes and moved. Sun was already below the horizon and it was growing darker therefore we preferred reaching hotel as soon as possible. Check the below video of the night ride.

Soon we reached our hotel as it was just at 17 kms. In the hotel we checked our pictures and shared it with each other. We were really happy and relaxed as we spent all day in the lap of nature.
